This book is about one fiery woman's involvement in a Sicilian mystery .
When Aunti Poldi turns sixty, she moves to Sicily to begin the next chapter of her life. Her plan is to spend her remaining days with good wine, and beautiful views. However, when her handyman goes missing - and is discovered murdered - she can't help but get involved. Aunti Poldi finds herself caught up in the middle of the investigation and in a romantic liaison with the police inspector leading it.
This book was a fun mysterious ride following Aunti Poldi on her Sicilian adventures. It was lovely meeting such interesting characters and being immersed in such a beautiful setting.
As the book was translated, some of the passages were a bit oddly worded. I also wish the story was narrated by only one person, as I felt the inclusion of Aunti Poldi's nephew was not quite necessary.
Overall, though, this book was fun and engaging. I enjoyed seeing an older protagonist who gets into the same mischief as someone much younger.
